I think "almost £1,000 a month" is a slight exaggeration, down.

She was stupid though. And this has me confused.

But the 34C blonde also claimed income support payouts, housing benefit and council tax freebies totalling £62,747 over six years.

Council officials launched an investigation after they spotted her £40,000 Audi TT sports car in her drive.
She was making less than £2,000 a month in total. Paying her rent out of that, food, heating, etc. Then what were the freebies, did she pay here local tax? How can she afford a £40,000 car??????

Even so £1,000 a month might of taken her out of the benefits trap. Yes it's a trap. For a lot of people in the UK it pays them more to sit at home and do nothing. Paying for their housing has also sent rent prices sky high. I know when I sold my UK home that the buyer was going to let it to people who were getting their rent paid. It was the best investment he ever made.

Living expenses in the UK have to be £1,000 doesn't leave enough for a £40,000 car to buy and run. Those babies cost a fortune to insure.

Did she have a career besides web cams, maybe a more personal service?
